5. What are the parts of a graph?
X-axis = IV

6. What are the parts of a graph?
Y-axis = DV
X-axis = IV

7. What are the parts of a graph?
Title =
DV vs. IV
Y-axis = DV
X-axis = IV

X-axis
X-axis = IV (ex: Day #)
Y-axis = DV (ex: Amount of Rain in cm)
Title = DV vs. IV (ex: Amount of Rain vs. Day #)

14. Graph ✔ list Data in correct location
Axes labeled with units (cm, L, s, kg, etc.)
Axes evenly spaced out
Accurate title
Correct graph type

15. Quick Practice Copy this table down and create a line graph for it!
Fertilizer Amount in (mg) - IV
Plant Height in (cm) - DV 5 10 13 15 20

16. Quick Practice Fertilizer Amount in (mg) - IV
Plant Height in (cm) - DV 5 10 13 15 20

17. Graph Types
